I would be happy to tell you the weight of the 5th wheel slider hitches you were looking at for your 2020 Ford F-350.

The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w Slider for Ford Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3370 weighs in at 263lbs.

The Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Ford Super Duty Prep Package # DM8550024 weighs in at 304lbs.

The Curt Q24 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R24 Slider - Dual Jaw # C16546 weighs 253lbs.

The options you were looking at minus the # C16546 will require your truck to have the for OEM puck system. If you have the puck system you would need the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch # C88KR to use the # C16546.

Out of all of these options I recommend the Demco Hijacker Autoslide # DM8550024 as it does not require you to get out and unlock the slider each time you need to make a sharp turn. It is pretty heavy at 304lbs but can be broke down into three pieces to make it more manageable, or you can use the Demco 5th Wheel Lifting Bracket # DM6100 with an engine hoist to get it in and out of the bed easier.

I included videos for the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
